Hello
Please forgive my noobness to rspec. I have a controller method that
inspects the params[:id] object and renders a view that depends on the
existence of that :id.
I want to ensure that the view is rendered in the controller rspec test.
The rspec code is:
describe “GET ‘enrollments’” do
it “should be successful” do
get ‘enrollments’
response.should be_success
end
end
The ‘enrollments’ controller method inspects the params object, pulls
out
the :id and uses it in a few queries to populate a couple of instance
variables.
My question is “How do I pass in the params[:id] parameter to the get
‘enrollments’ line?”
Thanks in advance
Matt

get ‘enrollments’, {:id => ‘1’)
One thing I’ve learned is to pay attention to the data type you use in
the params hash when you use get|post|put|delete. The params hash in a
real application is filled with strings, so yours should be too.

Peace,

get ‘enrollments’, {:id => ‘1’)
And, of course, that should be a curly at the end!
get ‘enrollments’, {:id => ‘1’}

Phillip - Yes, that worked, thanks a million!
